“Traditional wet film speed cameras are being replaced with digital versions that use flash media. Thanks to StorDigital users can quickly back up data to Blu-Ray ”

September 18, 2014, London – StorDigital Systems Ltd is actively supporting the countries police forces as they roll out of digital versions of their fixed and stationary speed cameras. In London alone hundreds of traditional “wet film” speed cameras will be replaced with digital cameras at traffic junctions where motorists are often caught jumping the lights. Work to upgrade the existing London network is expected to be completed by October 2016.

In partnership with public sector solutions providers StorDigital Systems have developed a range of bespoke devices aimed at making the lives of digital camera operatives easier. Every camera will be producing a huge volume of data that needs to both accessed, shared, stored and archives, which is where the StorDigital GoBlu™ Series of duplicators come in to play.

“The demand for Digital Storage media and its applications have never been great or more diverse. The roll out of digital technology across the UK’s speed enforcement teams means there will be a subsequent demand for solutions that enable operatives to quickly and easily manage their data. In most cases this will involve attending the device to retrieve a CF card that will then be required, by law’ to be securely backed up and archived. ” according to Nic Ranshaw, Sales Manager of StorDigital Systems Ltd.

“ By working closely with solutions providers, active within the ‘Safety Camera Partnership’ scheme we have developed a scalable solution that allows operatives of both fixed and mobile cameras to quickly and easily retrieve, store and archive crucial digital evidence. Mobile speed enforcement cameras typical capture 16GB or 2 hours worth of data per day, and a typical operative will need to backup and store data from 3-4 cards per day. The StorDigital Systems GoPro™ simplifies the back office process of burning the CF card to Blu-Ray on one standalone device allows the operative to backup 3 CF cards simultaneously. The whole process is inline with continuity of evidence protocol and the burnt Blu-Ray discs are totally tamper proof.” says Ranshaw.

SPEED CAMERAS in the capital are to be upgraded, with Londoners being warned to watch their average speed and not just their rate while passing the camera.

StorDigital Systems Ltd is actively supporting the countries police forces as they roll out of digital versions of their fixed and stationary speed cameras. In London alone hundreds of traditional “wet film” speed cameras will be replaced with digital cameras at traffic junctions where motorists are often caught jumping the lights. Work to upgrade the existing London network is expected to be completed by October 2016.

Average speed cameras, which check speed compliance along a more extensive length of road rather than just where the camera is located, have been trialled on a stretch of the A13 east of London.

Now Transport for London (TfL) is announcing that these types of camera will be installed at four more trial locations.

TfL’s strategy and planning director Ben Plowden said: “Ensuring that all road users are acting responsibly is vitally important to ensure that the capital’s roads are kept safe for all.

MINNEAPOLIS, MN – April 24, 2014 – Qumu Corporation (NASDAQ: QUMU) and Equus Holdings, Inc. (www.equus-holdings.com) today announced they have entered into a definitive asset purchase agreement under which Qumu will sell its Rimage disc publishing assets to Redwood Acquisition, Inc., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Equus Holdings in an all cash transaction valued at $23 million, subject to certain adjustments. The transaction resulted from a comprehensive process implemented by Qumu’s Board of Directors to maximize the value of the disc publishing operations for shareholders while enabling Qumu management to focus resources and time exclusively on the Company’s high growth enterprise video content management software business.

The transaction is subject to certain closing conditions, including Qumu shareholder approval, and is expected to close by July 31, 2014. Equus Holdings is a Minneapolis-based company that has evolved from a custom computer manufacturer to a portfolio of technology companies primarily in the IT equipment and solutions markets. Equus has been in business for 25 years and seven years ago became 100% employee-owned through an ESOP.

“Since 2010, we have noted our focus on addressing the decline in disc publishing revenues and driving a transformation in the business. At that same time, we began investing in online file sharing technology to target the evolving technology landscape in mobility and cloud computing. As our strategic vision developed further, we recognized the opportunity for video in the enterprise and, as a result, in October 2011, acquired Qumu, Inc., a leader in the emerging enterprise video software industry,” said Sherman Black, president and CEO of Qumu.

“Qumu software’s growth has been overshadowed by the declining revenue of our disc publishing operation. As a result, beginning in 2013, our Board, with the advice of Mooreland Partners as its financial advisor, undertook an extensive review of strategic alternatives for the disc publishing operation, including continuing to run the operations as part of Qumu Corporation. Following a thorough, competitive process that included multiple potential acquirers, the Board determined that it is in the best interests of our shareholders to sell the disc publishing assets to Equus Holdings. The proposed transaction is estimated to provide Qumu with approximately $19 to $20 million in net cash after closing costs, post-closing adjustments, taxes and the assumed return of the $2.3 million, 15 month escrow. Most importantly, it will enable us to concentrate our efforts and resources on the significant growth opportunity for our proprietary enterprise video software business. With a single focus on the growing software business, we have the potential to achieve improved value for our shareholders.”

“Our Board believes the transaction with Equus Holdings represents the highest value alternative for Qumu shareholders. We look forward to working with the Equus team to achieve a smooth transition of the disc publishing operations following the closing of the transaction,” Mr. Black concluded.

“For the past 25 years, Equus has been a leading provider of integrated computing, managed and mobile solutions to the North American value-added reseller channel. Like Equus, Rimage has a market leadership position and a reputation of high integrity and dependability. Rimage will be operated as a wholly owned subsidiary within the Equus organization, which will leverage Equus’ corporate structure, yet enable Rimage to remain focused and committed to delivering best in class disc publishing solutions and customer support. The Rimage operations complement our existing business and we are excited about working with their team to optimize opportunities in the marketplace once the transaction is completed,” said Andy Juang, President & CEO of Equus.

Mooreland Partners LLC acted as exclusive financial advisor to Qumu in connection with the transaction and delivered a fairness opinion to Qumu’s Board of Directors. Qumu will report results for the first quarter ended on March 31, 2014 on Monday, April 28, 2014 after market close.
